Ice3 Café @ Upper Thomson Road

Was at the Ice Cube Cafe outlet at Upper Thomson Road on Sunday, 27 Sep 09 at around 4 pm with my mum, my cousin, my cousin’s husband, and their two children.

Besides us, there was a party of five persons there but left as we placed our oder. There was only two staff present though we could tell from the staff cards that they have more than ten staff. Apparently most people come late in the night since the Café is opened till 1 am to 2 am.

For ice cream we had Chocolate Maximum (3 scopes of Mocha and Chocolate flavours - $12.90) and Very Berry Strawberry ($9.90) – both are good.

We also ordered Alcoholics Anonymous (which is a rum raisin ice cream on an Oreo crust). We could tell by the taste that the raisins were well soaked in rum. It was good too.

For finger food, we had the Seafood Platter (softshell crab, calamari rings, fish bites and prawn dippers served with tartar sauce - $14.90) and Cheesy Fries (crispy fries drenched in melted nacho cheese - $6.50).

The children had the Mango and Chocolate Smoothies ($5.50 each), which they seemed to enjoy.

A sign, which could be debatable, outside the Cafe.

Our order did take a long time to be served but the staff were very friendly and accommodating. They allowed the children to see how they prepare the smoothies and finger food. The children also kind of played hide and seek with the staff.

Initially we had wanted Onion Rings too but didn’t order that after agreeing to the staff recommendation of the Seafood Platter. However, the staff was kind enough to throw in three Onion Rings for the children.

Basically it was a good experience. A nice place to go if you like your mud pies and ice cream laced with alcoholics or if you happen to be around that area.

For my experience with their online order, please read previous post here.
